10 Signs You Need a Hair Makeover!

SIGN #1: Your hair has no volume.
The top is flat, the sides are bulky, and it no longer frames your features. If your hair just sits there, even after you've blown it dry, set it, or curled it, at the very least get a trim. 

SIGN #2: Your old pals assure you that "you haven't changed a bit!
It's probably time to do just that.  Start getting inspired by collecting images of cuts you'd consider. Revisit them weekly until you can picture living with one of them. Next, schedule an appointment.

SIGN #3: Your highlights are more noticeable than your base color.
This is an indication that your highlights have become too heavy. Consider a single process to cover the streaks and lay off new highlights for at least three months. (Don't worry, some of the lighter bits will naturally show through, giving you a subtler, sun-kissed effect.)

SIGN #4: You're not receiving compliments on your hair anymore.
One simple tweak sure to garner attention is to set your strands in hot rollers. Of all the heat-styling tools, they produce the softest, sexiest waves.

SIGN #5: Your hair and skin tone match.
If your tress and skin tones have become too close, you could benefit from lowlights. Add deeper, warmer streaks using peroxide and ammonia-free color to give your look loads of dimension without damaging your hair.

SIGN #6: Your clothes have evolved; your hair hasn't.
Altering your clothing style is the perfect excuse to update your 'do. This way, your new look will work from head to toe.

SIGN #7: Split ends are visible. 
When split ends are visible, you need to get a trim. Split ends damages your hair. So make the appointment STAT. 

SIGN #8: You pull your hair into a ponytail all the time.
Adding bangs or layers to give your locks some shape — that way, you'll be more apt to wear them down.

SIGN #9: You spend more than 20 minutes styling your hair.
If it takes this long, your cut is clearly not making the most of your texture.

SIGN #10: Your stylist could cut your hair with her eyes closed.
Sounds like someone's in a rut. Tell her exactly what you want, don't be afraid... after all it's their job. 

Hope you enjoy these great tips!
